FINE. AN EXTREMELY RARE PLATE BLOCK OF THE 1894 50-CENT UNWATERMARKED BUREAU ISSUE.

Lewis Kaufman records fewer than ten plate blocks of this issue. We have offered only one other example since at least 1993, which was stained and not nearly as choice as this plate block. None was offered in the Gross Multiples or Treasures sales.

Ex Curtis. With 2007 P.F. certificate
